Open Door TV series seeks viewer run programs in Britain
BBC plans 13 live Monday evening broadcasts of about 40 minutes each where groups submit proposals to air nonpolitical, noncommercial content. Groups must avoid ads, obscene material, personal attacks, riots, or incitement while BBC staff provide tech help and guidance. A BBC committee will select participants, aiming to test if viewer driven formats can succeed as a fresh approach to broadcasting.

President's Council of Economic Advisers Chair Merbert Stein said consumer boycotts against high prices may have contributed to a weekly drop in wholesale meat prices.
